Bot Killing With CowNoseTheElf

The one thing I hate most while leveling is seeing a bot. Well, that's actually not true. It's not that I like bots, just that I try to not let them get to me. I do enjoy, however, killing bots! It's fun to mess with them... and sometimes the owners come on and mess with you back if they are nearby their computer. It sort of reminds me of back in the day when I first started playing Lineage 2, the "Americans" (though they were probably from different countries) would go into a dungeon and fight the Koreans for control of the dungeon. In the beginning of Lineage 2 there was still a lot of Adena selling and all that stuff, however instead of bots it was real live (hehe) Koreans doing the farming.


First one...


Then the other...


Now it's time to work off my karma!

Peacefull Killing North of Giran

An uneventful day, yet there are always fantastic screenshot opportunities in Lineage 2 at every moment. Today is just one of those days!


Yes, SoulShot really works!


For some reason, I actually don't mind the look of Lineage 2's hills and mountains.


Nice action shot!

Another day, another raid boss!

I think this is actually a really pretty shot...

Pirate Raid Boss Killin'

Raiding is a common activity in Lineage 2. While it is not the easiest game to find groups, mechanically, it is easy to find them because of how necessary they are. OK I doubt I made much sense there. What I mean is, in Lineage 2 you need to shout in towns to find a party for a raid boss or anything else. There is a LFG tool, but it is seldom used. (It's a bit clunky and can show enemies where you are) Yet, because grouping is so vital and important in Lineage 2, groups are easy to find. So it's not uncommon, especially at the lower levels, to randomly find a raid to kill one or more raid bosses. Sometimes this ends in failure, other times, it goes pretty good!


First there is the essential buffing process...


Here he is! Ugly, I know.


Alright, time to cut 'im down!

Leveling Outside Giran

This is not the most stunning post, nor the most exciting, but it does show Giran Castle in all its glory, and some of the local wildlife.


There she is, Giran Castle!


And a Dragon.


And a Harpy!

Death Comes Easy In The Cruma Marshlands

I forget why I killed this person... I don't think I had a very good reason. I don't remember.


After killing that person, I felt like it was prime time to do some spider hunting.

Foul! Kill the cow...

Foul! Kill the cow... (I think he is trying say Fool! What do you think?)

When You're Near the Ant Nest You Gotta Kill The Basilisk

Like the title says, when your near the Ant Nest you gotta kill the Basilisk!


I met up with a random group of people. No problem, the Basilisk is easy to take down.


And here we have our more cinematic picture, got a nice view on this one.


These wolves are kicking butt!


I always think it's cool how at these newbie levels you can kill a raid boss and everyone levels up at once.

Ant Killing

Into the Nest, our hero adventures!


I enter the Ant Nest, ready for anything.


Ding!


Though these ants are tough, I'm tougher!


I wonder how many ants I have killed so far?

Full Manticore

Manticore, aka: manti, is D grade light armor. It has some good bonuses, though generally it is very overpriced. However, I really like how it looks, so I always try and buy some. Sometimes I even OE (overenchant) it! I guess you could say, I like to do the full manti...
